PC worm 'touches the neck' President Bush

US President Bush and Russian President Putin have just become victims of an online scam by hackers to spread a new kind of computer worm.

The Dref-N worm lurks in an attachment to emails containing fake news about the death of President Bush and President Putin or the explosion of a new nuclear war on a global scale. .

Hidden hidden content contains the Dref-N worm as follows:

PC worm 'touches the neck' President Bush Picture 1 Subject line : one of the following

Attachments : One of the following files

truth.exe, last.exe, lasest news.exe, never.exe, war.exe, about me.exe, a.exe, read me.exe, or open.exe.

If the subjective recipient opens the attached file with the forged emails, the Dref-N worm will immediately hack into their PC, disable the Windows Firewall security application, install the malicious code. Stealing user information and sending it back to the attacker.

Not only does the Dref-N worm send a copy of itself through the email path by exploiting the addresses available on the infected system.

Security experts say the Dref-N spread is not yet widespread, but they also warn users to be really careful.

Senior technology consultant from security firm Sophos, Mr. Graham Cluley, said: ' There are a lot of hackers' user frauds that are very easy to detect, but I'm really surprised. there are still a large number of users infected with malicious code from such emails '.

Thus, US President Bush and Russian President Vladimir Putin also had to join a long list of names of a number of celebrities used by hackers as bait to spread malicious code.
